Hello, we have Sunday again.
As you can see by Itzl's concerned look, this group is for us to check in at to let people know we are alive, doing OK, and not affected by such things as heat, blizzards, floods, wild fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, power outages, or other such things that could keep us off DKos. It's also so we can find other Kossacks nearby for in-person checks when other methods of communication fail - a buddy system. Members come here to check in. If you're not here, or anywhere else on DKos, and there are adverse conditions in your area (floods, heatwaves, hurricanes, etc.), we and your buddy are going to check up on you. If you are going to be away from your computer for a day or a week, let us know here. We care!
We have split up the publishing duties, but we welcome everyone in IAN to do daily diaries for the group! Every member is an editor, so anyone can take a turn when they have something to say, photos and music to share, a cause to promote or news!
If you would like to fill in, either post in thread or send FloridaSNMom a Kosmail with the date. If you need someone to fill in, ditto. FSNMom is here on and off through the day usually from around 9:30 or 10 am eastern to around 11 pm eastern.
If you'd like to be part of the Itzl Alert Network, please leave a comment asking to join, or send us a message asking to join. We'd love to have you. The bigger our network, the less likely someone will be stranded all alone.
Not much going on here, and I'll be unavailable when this is supposed to post. So just some odds and ends.
I use Goodsearch rather than Google to search the internet. It contributes a penny a search to any charity you choose. There are other options available for the same purpose at the site - some of them end up contributing more toward your charity of choice.
I enjoy Little Green Footballs. I didn't used to, but the site has changed. I like some of the music vids and every day on the left is a list of articles on other sites - they even have DailyKos every so often.
I really like Itzl's Place, though Noddy hasn't posted anything new since mid-January.
It's Thursday as I write this, and I will be leaving on Amtrak for Seattle tomorrow morning. My parents live there, and my offspring are already there - I'm going to be coming home with them.
Cheers!
